What's of particular importance is the fact that <span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 102);font-size:180%;" >TWO</span> films by Yemeni filmmakers will be screened at the festival. I'm not exaggerating when I say that this is about as rare as the planets aligning! Shit, this like O.J. admitting that he did it, or better yet, like Richard Simmons winning the UFC Heavyweight title! I've never been this psyched about a film festival, so I figure I might well start a blog and write some film reviews, which I will try to post after each night of the festival.<br />Besides the upcoming event, I would say that reading my friends' blogs (Ibn Bint Jbeil, Transient, The Doghouse of Booya, The Arabican, etc.) had a lot to do with starting my own.<br />As far as what I'll post, expect a mishmash of short films and artwork (by yours truly), journal entries, political rants, film reviews, short shorties, and whatever the hell else comes to mind.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4435812480003594872-2212621364282530408?l=sonofyemen.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>The Lost Son of Yemenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07559849154610394010noreply@blogger.com2
